Final Day as PKS Guest Designer ;(

Welcome friends and thank you for visiting me on my final day as Guest Designer for Peachy Keen Stamps.  I had so much fun.....who doesn't have fun using the cute Peachy Keen stamps?

Today is a Let's Face it Friday challenge day and the theme is Back to School (hence the theme I took on for the week ;) ) My project for today is a special Back to School gift for a very special person in my daughters elementary school career.  Mrs. Guerard is the school nurse and with Madison having type 1 diabetes.....Mrs. Guerard and Madison have gotten to know each other quite well.  I am so blessed to have Sandy at school taking care of Madison.....I know that she is in good hands and is well taken care of!

I spent some time playing with my Gypsy over the past month or so and created this desk that I am a bit proud of.  I just love how it turned out.  I used the Cricut cartridges: George and Basic Shapes and Designer Calendar (optional) to create the Gypsy file.  If you would like the .gypsy file click here.


I used the cricut and gypsy to cut the pieces out of thin chipboard and then I used Walnut Stain distress ink to give it that school desk color.  I then folded and adhered the pieces together using red tape.  When creating the drawers I added some metal clips and brads I picked up at a rummage sale this summer (I believe they may be close to my heart brand).  I created a card to fit atop the desk using the same ink and I stamped the cute little apple from Peachy Keen Stamps Faceless Fruit and added a cute little smile using Peachy Keen Stamps Everyday Character Face assortment.  I then used my mini sharpies with the sharpie holder for my cricut from Chomas Creations; to create the little calendar for atop the desk.  Afterwards I realized I really should have made a yearly calendar stapled together so she could peel off each month....but....next time ;)



I then filled the little drawers with goodies for Mrs. Guerard.  Some paper clips, staples, post it notes, hard candies, and some quarters (Madi borrowed a few quarters from Mrs. Guerard last year for cool treats on Fridays.....I figured I would give her a stash of them back ;) )
